Chapter 979: Two Families Secretly Formed an Alliance (Reform)

Mai Ke gave Li Hongzhang an ultimatum-style notice of talks, and let Li Hongzhang be blinded.

If you don't go, you can't go, the sixth brother can't be lost!

If you go, what will you get in exchange for the sixth brother?

I really can't find anything that Mai Ke can look at.

So, he asked his third brother to discuss what to do.

"In my opinion, you can't go at all! Second brother, you are not only the pillar of the family, but also an important minister trusted by the emperor, isn't the Heavenly Army trying to arrest someone like you? If you go, there is really no return! The sixth brother is important, but you are also equally important, and for the sake of an uncertain result, it is really worth the loss to let you take risks. The matter of the sixth brother, you can find a way in the future!"

Li Hezhang said with a frown.

Li Hongzhang also pondered for a while, and said: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate not to go, I still have to go, if I ask for a meeting and don't go as promised, I'm worried that the sixth brother will be in danger." ”

"If you really can't do it, then let me go! Second brother, don't take risks easily. Li Hezhang resolutely asked.

Li Hongzhang was moved in his heart, but he didn't think that the third brother was suitable for this kind of thing, so he said: "The third brother needs to sit in the inner city, and I don't know anything about these organs. ”

At this time, what is Mai Ke doing?

He was healing the sick and saving people, rescuing the wounded and bringing people back from the dead.

Of course, Mai Ke doesn't have this ability, but he is in charge of Lingxi's movement, and he needs to make a request to it, otherwise Lingxi won't take the initiative to do things as soon as he moves.

When collecting the wounded, sick and dead, whether it was the Heavenly Army or the Lingxi Movement, Mai Ke asked to search for the scope of the Baokou Heavenly Army and Huaiyong, and the category of collection was to get it back regardless of whether it was dead or injured.

However, when placing these people, they are to be separated.

Mai Ke has priority in treatment. This is the rule of the people of Heaven!

Others, Mai Ke, did not guarantee whether to give diagnosis and treatment, but only said that if there is time, they will consider it.

However, this difference is more theoretical and emotional, rather than how obvious it is in fact and material.

The reason is that the speed of treatment is too fast.

Mai Ke didn't know if the Spirit Rhino Movement had evolved and provided such a thing. However, the feeling to him is that it is much faster now than before.

In the past, it took at least 30 minutes to diagnose 10,000 people, and it took an hour to complete the treatment.

Now, although there are more than 30,000 dead and wounded on both sides, it took two minutes together.

Again, it's because of the need to discriminate.

Therefore, in fact, the difference in the time between Tianjun and Huai Yong being treated is only one minute.

But. Although this minute is very short, when is it, and at the moment of life and death, one minute is enough to die ten times and eight times.

Therefore, this differential treatment must be maintained.

Another major change is the change of Mai Ke, who has added 20% of the additional treatment process to the same amount.

Other words. One of the functions of the Spiritual Rhino Movement, as long as it has been healed by him. All of them can improve the quality of the body, that is, the overall quality, by a range of 1 to 20 percent.

In the past, Mike was generally direct to the highest level of his own people.

As for the enemy, it is limited to saving lives. Bonus is exempt.

Because these people are likely to survive and continue to oppose the Heavenly Army, the increase in their physique and ability means that the damage to the Heavenly Army increases.

Mai Ke is not so kind that he is afraid that the enemy will not hurt him enough, and he will help them to the extent.

But. Now it's different. The enemy is the enemy before he is killed or wounded, but after he is treated, he is a prisoner, and so far all the captives of the Celestial Army have been two ways.

Or if they continue to work in the army, they will join the Heavenly Army, so that their 20 percent increase will naturally be used by the Heavenly Army.

Or return to the homeland, which is allowed and encouraged by the policy of the Heavenly Army, and returning to the hometown is now or in the near future, and will become a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven and contribute to the Kingdom of Heaven.

As for them going back again, doing their old business, and becoming enemies of the heavenly army, the possibility is very small.

Most of them had been forced to come by the Emperor's decree of extinction, and the scene where they were nearly killed and seriously injured was a nightmare for them to remember for a long time.

Except with rare exceptions, they would not relive such nightmares.

In any case, Mai Ke completed the treatment and saved all 30,000 soldiers of the Heavenly Army, but in the end, more than 6,000 people died.

On Huaiyong's side, 35,000 people were saved, and 8,000 died.

On the surface, they were basically comparable, but in fact, the last strength of the Celestial Army had not decreased, but increased.

All the Huai Yong who were rescued participated in the Heavenly Army!

This increased the number of celestial armies from 40,000 to 69,000!

On the Huaiyong side, there was a net decrease of 43,000 people!

After this battle, the number of troops on both sides changed to 72,000 men.

Among them, the happiest Cheng Tunjin!

Not only did most of his bandit backbone come back to life, but her fifty Black Guards were also saved!

Although they were wiped out by Li Zhaoqing's white-clothed knights together, because those people were all using guns and there was no head-off incident, they were all rescued by Lingxi.

There is one more joyful thing to add.

Even those white-clothed knights, there were also seventy people who died, and the injuries of these people were more serious, especially under the first round of Cheng Swallowing Gold's three-wrench axe, most of them lost their heads, which belonged to the scope of Lingxi's motionless treatment, but in the end, fifty people were successfully rescued.

At Mai Ke's suggestion, these fifty people also joined Cheng Tunjin's guard!

In this way, Cheng Tunjin's guards became a hundred, fifty black, fifty white, black and white, and the offensive and defensive capabilities were greatly improved.

As soon as these things were finished, a call came from downstairs in the city: "The old man Li Hongzhang came to see the Heavenly Army Mai Ke as promised!"

Although Mai Ke commanded Li Hongzhang's army at the meeting place, the minimum etiquette should still be maintained, so he walked out of the city tower to the front to greet him, and then the two came to a temporary meeting room side by side.

After a little greeting, the two went straight to the point.

"Mai Ke, I won't talk nonsense, your people and my Huaiyong fight are their own masters, I don't think you care about this very much; but my brother was captured by you, I want to beg you to let him live, this is your personal relationship with me; my request is this, what conditions do you have, as long as I can do it, even if you want my Li Hongzhang's head, I will satisfy you!"

Knowing that it is useless to go around in circles, and this requirement must be directly mentioned by himself, otherwise, it will only increase the variables, so Li Hongzhang did not think twice and put forward the request clearly.

As for the conditions of exchange, Li Hongzhang made it clear that the carriage and horses are one, let them be slaughtered!

Mai Ke secretly praised, really shrewd! Sure enough, the brotherhood is deep!

In terms of negotiation strategy, this is called death and then life, because the person who uses this strategy knows that he has no other way to go, and the other party does not want to put himself to death, in this way, for the common benefit of both parties, he will take the initiative to relax the conditions to ensure that he can reach a certain cooperation intention under the condition of common survival in the future.

In fact, this is also the best attitude that Mai Ke expects, to be horizontal, to be hard, to be stunned, it is not easy to use here in Mai Ke, but it is this kind of "what you say, I listen to what" makes Mai Ke have to reply to the other party with the best conditions.

Therefore, Mai Ke must praise Li Hongzhang for being smart enough.

"If that's the case, I won't mention any conditions. Of course, Mai Ke is optimistic about Li Hongzhang, so he simply gives it a generous hand and doesn't want anything, just hoping that he will wake up in his understanding and beliefs, and he still has to say something.

"I only have a few words I want to say to Brother Shaoquan, count them as my advice.

"The decisive battle of the two rivers in the Kingdom of Heaven this time is a battle of Qiankun Dingding, and the end is that the main military force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty has all been defeated, and the heavenly army has won a complete victory! Such an ending has been achieved halfway, your East Road Army, Northwest Road Cavalry, and Caoyun forces have all been annihilated by our army, and half of the Northeast Road Army has also been annihilated!

"You know the situation best here, you may not know the overall result of a local battle in which a partial division participates, then I will tell you that the heavenly army has increased from 40,000 to 69,000, and the Huaiyong side has decreased by 43,000 men!

After this battle, the number of troops on both sides changed to 72,000 men!

"This kind of ending is still good, because you are not completely annihilated, and not because you are not completely annihilated, not because you have the ability to achieve this result, but because I don't want to destroy you!

"Brother Shaoquan won't doubt that we have this ability, right? Five minutes! In no more than five minutes, I can take the inner city.

"Of course, I'm not trying to scare Brother Shaoquan, but I just want to show that the Manchus are already incorrigible! Within five days, we will end the Battle of the Two Rivers, and then, at most, two months, completely overthrow the rule of the Manchus and plant the banner of heaven on every inch of land!

"Brother Shaoquan will definitely think, what about in the future, isn't it just that you will be the emperor and change the dynasty?

"Here I can reveal to Brother Shaoquan that occupying the whole country is just a beginning, and having the whole country is just a foundation!

"After establishing this foundation, we will immediately turn our bricks outward, and spend another year planting the flag of heaven in every corner of the earth!

"To hell with all the great powers and overlords!

"Brother Shaoquan, are you interested in participating in our great cause and prestige in the world? What kind of national shame and national hatred, all of them have snowed together, and they have been avenged together, and they are happy to be revenged, how fascinating! How is it, Brother Shaoquan? Welcome to come!"

Mai Ke's incitement made Li Hongzhang, an old man who thought that Mount Tai collapsed before he was silent, was enthusiastic several times!

Who doesn't want to do it?

It's just that I hit the wall many times, and I either died, or I changed, and I was deeply suppressed!

Now he actually let Mai Ke pick it up.

"Okay! As long as you go that far, even if you have a share! I hope you don't have to wait too long! I don't have the veteran Lian Po, who can grow old and strong!"

Since Li Hongzhang's blood was boiling, he didn't let him cool down anymore, and resolutely accepted Mai Ke's invitation.
